Wembanyama was raised in France, where he was born. Like many young children, his initial instinct was to play football. However, his enormous size made him a good basketball prospect, and by the time he was 10, he had joined a youth program at Nanterre.

His childhood coach, Karim Boubekri, was immediately impressed with the child at that point. The coach was most taken aback by Wembanyama’s intelligence, despite the fact that most people would assume Boubekri was enjoying the boy’s basketball skills. Years later, the French teenager spoke of the “rigor” his coach had instilled in him through his rigorous training.
